    Pradosh Vrata

    Triodashi is called Pradosh. Like Ekadashi, Pradosh is important every month, Vishnu is remembered in Ekadashi and Shiva is remembered in Pradosh. Pradosh begins 45 minutes before sunset and ends 45 minutes after sunset.

    Pradosha Katha

    It is mentioned in the scriptures that Lord Shiva cured the disease of the moon on the day of Triodashi, when the effect of the moon was diminishing.

    Due to this, Pradosh Vrat is observed in Triodashi of every month in remembrance of Lord Shiva. It is more fruitful to worship Shiva in the time of pradosh.

    International Dance Day

    Background:

    In 1982, the Dance Committee of ITI primarily based International Dance Day to be celebrated yearly on April 29. The date was chosen in honor of the 19th-century French dancer and ballet grasp, Jean-Georges Noverre. He is moreover regarded as the creator of modern ballet.


    Objectives of this day:

    The Dance Committee of the International Theatre Institute (ITI), which is the main partner for the performing arts of UNESCO, founded the International Dance Day in 1982. They created the day to celebrate dance around the world. People celebrate International Dance Day only on April 29th annually because it marks the birth anniversary of Jean-Georges Noverre, who is claimed to be the father of modern ballet. This day is a tribute to his contribution to the development of dance as an art form.

    Hamro Patro - Connecting Nepali Communities
    Hamro Patro is one of the first Nepali app to include Nepali Patro, launched in 2010. We started with a Nepali Calendar mobile app to help Nepalese living abroad stay in touch with Nepalese festivals and important dates in Nepali calendar year. Later on, to cater to the people who couldn’t type in Nepali using fonts like Preeti, Ganesh and even Nepali Unicode, we built nepali mobile keyboard called Hamro Nepali keyboard.
